10.1.1.2 Setting the Access Control Configuration
 Adding or Editing a Management Access Policy
Refer to the Access Control tab to allow/deny management access to the network using selected protocols
(HTTP, HTTPS, Telnet, SSH or SNMP). Access options can be either enabled or disabled as required. Motorola
Solutions recommends disabling unused interfaces to reduce unnecessary security holes. The Access Control
tab is not meant to function as an ACL (in routers or other firewalls), where you can specify and customize
specific IPs to access specific interfaces.
The following table demonstrates some interfaces provide better security than others and are more
desirable.
To set an access control configuration for the Management Access policy:
1. Select the Access Control tab from the Management Policy screen.
